Police Blotter

2:31 p.m. An officer was requested to return a call about a stolen Christmas package. The woman stated her mother had sent via FedEx a package containing Christmas gifts to her but when she did not receive the package she called her mother to confirm the address and realized the package was sent to her neighbors house. The woman said she went to ask the neighbor about the package and he said he had called FedEx to pick up the package because the name on it was unfamiliar to him. The woman said she then called FedEx and asked them if they picked the package up but they could not confirm they did. The officer went to speak with the neighbor who told him that he saw the package and that his sister might know where it is but she was not home at the time. The man then told the officer that he saw the package and left it outside because he thought there was a bomb in it and he thought FedEx would see it and pick it back up. The man was issued a summons for theft.
